About us - Cat Harness Australia

Adventure Awaits

A message from our founders

Our rescue cat changed the way we thought about life indoors. Elsa was endlessly curious about the world beyond the front door, but roaming freely wasn’t safe for her. When the harnesses we tried couldn’t give us confidence, we set out to create our own.

That first design grew into Cat Harness Australia, a Sydney-born brand creating products around the way cats actually move, feel and explore.

Today, we make secure, comfortable adventure gear that helps cats experience more of the world while strengthening the bond they share with their people.

Who we are.

Cat Harness Australia is an Australian adventure brand creating thoughtfully designed gear for cats and the people who explore with them. Born in the Illawarra and shaped by real experiences and community feedback, our products bring security, comfort and confidence to life beyond the front door.

From wriggle-proof harnesses for outdoor walks to considered backpacks for travel and everyday outings, everything we create is designed around how cats move and feel. Whether your cat is naturally curious or cautiously finding their confidence, we’re here to help you explore at their pace and enjoy more of the world together.

Why cat harnesses matter

A thoughtfully designed harness gives cats more ways to experience the world safely, from outdoor walks and travel to calmer, more manageable vet visits. With patience and positive training, it can become a familiar source of security while helping cats and their people build trust through shared experiences.

Cats aren’t small dogs. Their flexible bodies, natural escape behaviours and sensitivity to pressure require products designed specifically for them. We believe cat harnesses matter because the right fit can provide comfort, confidence, connection and that every adventure product should begin with cats first.

We do things differently

Cats are often treated as an afterthought in the pet industry. We put them first. Our products are shaped by community feedback, customer surveys and the real challenges cat parents face, because cats deserve more than a small section of the pet-store shelf or products adapted from those made for dogs.

Our support continues beyond the product itself. Every harness and backpack includes a beginner’s training guide to help you start with confidence, along with ongoing customer support. Our training bundles also include access to our dedicated cat behaviourist through video consultation and 1:1 email guidance.

We’re equally committed to supporting animals beyond our community. Suitable returned harnesses are donated to Australian cat rescues and foster carers, while local rescue organisations receive additional support through monetary donations. We are proud corporate supporters of WIRES Australia and have an exclusive partnership with Brinkley Davies’ Balu Blue Foundation, including our Balu Blue Cat Harness created especially for the cause.
